OnPolitics: What's next for Donald Trump's Georgia case? It could get ugly.

Corrections & Clarifications: This story has been updated to remove a reference to co-defendants pointing fingers and to add quotes from John Eastman's lawyer, Harvey Silverglate. The story has also been updated to clarify the allegations against Eastman and to include his plea of "not guilty."

It's Friday, OnPolitics readers, and we're sending you this special edition of OnPolitics to share our coverage of a historic jail booking − and what happens next.

The threat of jail time is getting real for former President Donald Trump and co-defendants charged, arrested and booked in the Georgia election fraud case, USA Today politics reporter Josh Meyer writes.

👉 An attorney for John Eastman remarked on differences among the allegations against the various co-defendants. Prosecutors have accused Eastman of coming up with the legal strategy for Trump to stay in power by using fake electors to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. Eastman has pleaded not guilty.

“The people with stronger defenses don’t want to be tarred by the problems with the people with the weaker defenses," Eastman's lawyer, Harvey Silverglate, told the DailyMail.com. "The former mayor of New York is in a very different position than John Eastman. It may be that the former mayor of New York and Trump and a couple others will be tried together.”

The DailyMail.com said Silverglate later clarified that Eastman doesn't intend "to cast either blame or aspersions upon any other defendant. That will be for a court to decide.”

By all appearances, Meyer writes, expect it to get complicated, contentious and potentially ugly as the alleged co-conspirators weigh how they'll fight the case as it moves to court.
